A quintessentially Italian town

Located on the western coast of Italy, Sorrento is one of the prettiest in Italy. Overlooking the divine Bay of Naples and enfolded by stunning cliffs, Sorrento has a rich history which really makes it stand out from the crowd. The historic centre is proudly surrounded by its ancient city walls, and within them, you can experience real Italy. Make your first visit to the Piazza Tasso, lined with excellent cafes (Fauno Bar being the local's favourite) and just let your senses absorb the beauty of Sorrento. Find the perfect holiday letting in Sorrento and enjoy this great Italian dream destination.

Life on the coast

Sorrento's charming waterfront is a focal point for visitors. The attractive marina, to Sorrento's west, features exceptional restaurants which offer a wide range of Italian cuisine as well as a fantastic selection of wines. On the right-hand side of the marina is where you'll find the ferry to towns such as Naples or Positano (in case you want to extend your visit there, we recommend our holiday lettings in Positano). The views from the restaurants at the marina are wonderful. Look out for the top-end yachts moored here!

Sorrento for photographers

There can be no argument that Sorrento is one of the most picturesque towns in all of Italy, and as such it's a perfect place for photographers be they novice or professional. If you book a holiday rental in Sorrento and want to get out and take some pictures, you can go to the Sorrento Cathedral Bell Tower, in the western part of town, which is a classic Italian photograph – especially with that extraordinarily blue sky behind it. The old town is just crying out to be captured on film with its vibrant colours and pretty streets, markets, cafes and shops. But of course, the classic photograph from Sorrento is the famous shot of Vesuvius – get it from the Chiesa di San Francesco. If you want more photo spots, you can take a ferry from Sorrento to Capri, which will only take you 30 minutes, and discover for yourself why Capri is one of the most famous places for its scenery. You can take the ferry back or make it a weekend trip by staying in a holiday rental in Capri.

Sorrento for beach clubs

There's just something really special about Sorrento's beach clubs, and what's more – there is no shortage of them! By the marina, you'll find four main beach clubs, each with its own special offerings. Marameo Beach offers you a private jacuzzi, and floating sun beds and specialises in Italian seafood. Peter's Beach provides an absolutely gorgeous view, and as the sun sets you can enjoy the sounds of jazz with a drink and quite exceptional food. Leonelli's Beach Club is the best destination for families. It has a very large beach and lots of safe space. Finally, Bagni Salvatore, without question the prettiest of them all (and that's a tall order as they're all delightful) has walls that are a Roman villa and divine Mediterranean dining offerings. On top of that, there are also very interesting offers for holiday rentals in Sorrento with a sea view, so for any beach lover this would be a dream come true. And in case you're looking for more beach holiday destination options, we recommend our villas on the Amalfi Coast.
